crystal 9 and vb6

[sexydog]

hi

i wrote all my reports in crystal 8.5 and developed and application in vb6 to run these reports. i now have crystal 9 and need to write reports in them because of memo fields.do i need special coding in vb6 to run these reports

From what I know no extra coding is required but when you distribute your application you need to update some of the dll files

I just finsihed converting two VB6 application from working with Crystal 7, 8, and 8.5 reports to working with CR 9.0 reports as well.

You would need to change the controls and references in your VB project to use the new dlls and controls.

There are a few deprecated and obsolete methods/attributes
in the RDC that you should be aware of (read the developer's online help).

Other than that, things are relatively smooth.
